My Insurance Company is Trying to Kill Me! Monday, June 22, 2015. Pretty in Pink: The real challenge for gender stereotypes. Lucky for me and parents like me, the feminist movement has brought us this: Princess Awesome. It is a clothing company that had wild success getting funded through Kickstarter. The HuffPo article headline read: Moms Launch Stereotype-Bashing Clothing Line That Challenges What It Means To Be 'Girly'. Why are we culturally okay with little girls wearing footballs and trucks, but we ...

My Insurance Company is Trying to Kill Me!: I can't beleive my insurance company is paying for all of this!
http://insurancide.blogspot.com/2015/05/i-cant-beleive-my-insurance-company-is.html
My Insurance Company is Trying to Kill Me! Wednesday, May 27, 2015. I can't beleive my insurance company is paying for all of this! This is kind of the anti-post. I have to say that I haven't had much to. Write about since I've been on the University's staff health care plan. It's really quite good coverage, which I guess highlights the huge difference in quality of life that an insurance plan can impact. I will complain about the state of maternity leave in this country in the next post (promise). So yo...

My Insurance Company is Trying to Kill Me!: Lumped into a category: Pregnant and diabetic
http://insurancide.blogspot.com/2015/01/lumped-into-category-pregnant-and.html
My Insurance Company is Trying to Kill Me! Friday, January 23, 2015. Lumped into a category: Pregnant and diabetic. It's been 26 weeks of this new category: pregnant and diabetic. I've heard others who are a bit further along say they don't know how much more they can take. that they are getting treatment from their insurance companies and medical team that are hindering their ease of diabetes management. Type 1 diabetes pregnancy = high risk. Period. No way around it. Explains why it's best to wait unti...

My Insurance Company is Trying to Kill Me! Monday, November 21, 2016. Please Don't Make Me Go Back to Pre-Obamacare! Great Now I'm forced to write this stupid post because of stupid Donald Trump's stupid victory. One middle-aged white guy (surprise surprise! Here are my worst stories from pre-Obamacare:. But it gets kind of worse. I went to the county health department and talked with a social worker there. I was in tears as she told me that there aren't any programs for a person my age (not unde...My ex...

My Insurance Company is Trying to Kill Me!: MedEQUIP partially reedems itself; Dexcom comes down a peg
http://insurancide.blogspot.com/2015/03/medequip-partially-reedems-itself.html
My Insurance Company is Trying to Kill Me! Wednesday, March 18, 2015. MedEQUIP partially reedems itself; Dexcom comes down a peg. I was SO FRUSTRATED with MedEQUIP for not calling me when my supplies were up for refill. It happened many times, and they always CLAIMED that they did call me. Uh, in that case, there would be a missed call on my phone, and anyways don't just call once! There should be an exception when it comes to chronic illnesses. We do have an auto-refill program.".

My Insurance Company is Trying to Kill Me! Tuesday, June 23, 2015. The best take on breastfeeding in public I've heard so far. In response to a PopSugar article called "Dear Breastfeeding Moms, Is It Really That Hard to Cover Up? One facebook user shared this poignant response and social commentary (reposted with permission). A longer version can be found here. I'm a little confused why you think I ought to hold in high esteem the ignorant aversions of a stranger in regards to nursing? What ends up happe...

http://insurancide.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
My Insurance Company is Trying to Kill Me! Thursday, May 9, 2013. The obscurity of medical services pricing. I've often wondered about pricing in the healthcare industry. It is so obscure. I'm very grateful to NPR for exploring this issue recently on Planet Money's Hospital Prices, Revealed! I will talk about the time a $10,000 bill that made its way to my mailbox. To make a long story. 35 (the amount of the emergency room copay). That "laboratory" fee of $78? Of anti-naseau medication. IV start is t...

My Insurance Company is Trying to Kill Me!: Bed-sharing: What your pediatrician won't tell you
http://insurancide.blogspot.com/2015/06/bed-sharing-what-your-pediatrician-wont.html
My Insurance Company is Trying to Kill Me! Monday, June 22, 2015. Bed-sharing: What your pediatrician won't tell you. What ends up happening is that moms will fall asleep with the baby in her arms on the couch, in the glider, or in her bed. This can be dangerous if the baby slips out of her arms into soft couch cushions. But there is an alternative. Safe bedsharing, or as this article. If bedsharing is inevitable, then can we please talk openly about how to do it safely and its benefits? 1 It helps estab...
